and IL is still gaining largely IL seems that Post 5s

| rare occurrence indeed for comrade TO be re-
elected consccutively and unanimously each time
guidance this Post has mustered about 800

how many, comrades is it equaled? Not 10y

dent yentured prophecy that Post s. would wresi
the honor Of being the second largest Post In this

another year. and after accomplishing that feat
would, In "A few additional months, succeed In dis
placing Post ., another Philadelphia Post and oc'
